AI Crawler Compliance Gate

Help site owners tell good AI crawlers from bad bots and generate a workable access policy

Problem

Site owners find that AI assistants can load their links inconsistently: sometimes the page is readable, sometimes it is blocked by a 'checking if you are a malicious bot' screen, and they cannot tell whether AI crawler traffic is actually malicious. Meanwhile, whoever writes the rules has no idea how to treat different AI traffic, so the choice is block everything or allow everything.

Solution

An embeddable traffic classification and policy service: it categorizes traffic by known AI crawler sources and behavior signals, generates tiered access rules (allow summarizers, deny trainers), and outputs copy-pasteable protection configs. A live dashboard shows the share of each AI traffic type and why requests were blocked.

Users

Independent site owners, bloggers, small SaaS operators and docs sites with content assets

MVP

A rule library based on common AI crawler user agents and IP ranges; one-click generation of robots.txt and WAF/Cloudflare rule snippets; a basic traffic stats dashboard; a URL tester showing whether a page is readable to AI; skip complex machine learning

Revenue

Subscription by number of sites with a free tier for basic classification; a pro tier with rule templates and alerts; affiliate revenue from CDN integrations

Why now

AI crawlers are becoming a major traffic source, and the boundary dispute between content owners and AI companies has just begun with rules not yet settled, so a small tool can claim space quickly
